Answer

547 = 5.47 × 10²

Step-by-step explanation

The key to writing numbers that are in standard notation (normal form) in the scientific notation (expanded form) is

- If the number is greater than 1, the scientific notation will be a product of the form of the number between 1.0 and 9.9.. and 10 raised to the power of the number of digits after the first one.

- If the number is less than 1, then, the power of the 10 is the number of zeros before the first non-zero number.

So, since the number in this question is greater than 1, we will use the first rule.

547 = 5.47 × 10²

Hope this Helps!!!
